The Gratitude Challenge

How is the weekend going?? It's almost gone.... So I was tagged by Moby and Ms Cookie to do the gratitude challenge.. The challenge is all about stating what you are grateful for and also giving out to the needy.. I love this challenge because it's not just about you as a person but helping others and it has also helped me recollect and count my blessing (yea... I don't do that everyday)

THE RULES:
--When nominated you have 24 hours to accept the challenge.

--You have to write or say 3 things you are grateful for on any social media platform just once.

--You are to take a picture of a simple pleasure. A simple pleasure is something that makes (or made) you smile in a day preferably non humans (because I am sure a lot of people would list the humans as what they are grateful for). For example a cup of coffee, a bottle of your favorite soda or drink, a scoopful of ice cream, a butterfly that just perched on a window, something at your work desk, a game…You get the drift. It is something that should be inexpensive. It is not an opportunity to show off cars, watches, shoes and all the things that people like showing off nowadays.

--You have to give out at least 5 USD (convert it to your local currency) within 7 days of accepting the challenge to a less privileged person or a cause or a charity organization.

--You nominate three people (within your circle) to take up the challenge.

--If you don’t accept the challenge you are required to donate at least 20 USD to a charity organization of your choice.

WHAT I AM GRATEFUL FOR...

--The gift of life and good health, E no easy to mark every day calender ohh.. Waking up every morning is a special gift and I'm thankful for that.. waking up to a good health every morning makes life even better.. you know it's one thing to be alive in pain and another to be hale and hearty.

--My Family and Friends, where would I be without them? my earthly angels, always there even when I mess up.. I'm so thankful I have them to run to every time.. their love they kokoroko ... Oh and for friends I'm grateful for a few.

--Internet and technology, ahhh seriously?? Yes... I can't tell you how this is stress killer in many ways... Just imagine we still write letters or wait for moon light stories at night for entertainment haha! I'm so grateful I can read news and know what is going on, search Google and YouTube for solutions.. honestly the list is endless.

AND of course I'm grateful for my blog and the amazing readers, you always make my day :)
